Darth Maul vs Anakin Skywalker

Started by DARTH POWER4 pages

It's stated multiple times that Maul's combat skills were unparalleled and stuff. Just read Shadow Warrior. Even TPM Novel stated his warrior skills were at their peak, never to be any better. That implies no room for improvement.

That said Anakin wins. He's a match for Count Dooku.

No man. 'High' and 'highest' are two entirely different things. 'Multiple' and 'all' are also two entirely different things.

Yeah but the truth is that they were obviously "paralleled" on multiple occasions.

No man. Being a ''high-end'' master is clearly the same as mastering them to the ''highest'' degree.

There are only seven forms. ''Multiple'' would refer to three to five, ''most'' would refer to four to five/six. It really doesn't matter.

On a scale between 1-10, 7 is a high number while the highest is 10.

They obviously aren't the same thing.

That's not really comparable.

It is perfectly comparable. And multiple is anything > 1 (e.g. two could qualify as "multiple"😉. Besides, 3-5, as you state, does not equal 7 and as such does not equal "all" as is stated in the OP.

It's not. We're not judging them by scale.

I don't see why it's worth noting. It doesn't make Maul less impressive in any way.

Edit: 2 wouldn't be multiple. Refer to the ''one, two, many''.

mul·ti·ple (mlt-pl)
adj.
Having, relating to, or consisting of more than one individual, element, part, or other component; manifold.
n.
A number that may be divided by another number with no remainder: 4, 6, and 12 are multiples of 2.

You mean, a scale of mastery is not a scale?

Multiple means 1. having or involving more than one part, individual, etc: he had multiple injuries

Let's say we have seven different colors. You only like two of them: if I'd ask you how many you liked, would you say ''I like multiple''?

Absolutely! And if I said I like them a lot, that doesn't equate to me liking them the best or to the 'highest' possible level.

lol

Edit: Sure, but then I'd say no one in the mythos has mastered a Form to the highest possible level, ie making the difference between my loose paragraph and the quote pointless.

A woman orgasms twice in a row.

She had multiple orgasms, right?

Besides I37, it doesn't matter what I would "say," it matters what the official meaning of the word multiple entails.

You're evading my question.

Yes. I mean, I probably wouldn't because that sounds pretty awkward. But if it went down like

'I like red and blue'

'Oh so you like multiple colors?'

'Yes.'

I would say that Dooku mastered Makashi to its highest extent.

That's pretty stupid.

Refer to the word ''several'', which means ''one or two but not many'', yet I could probably find an article about an Elephant or whatever, in which the Elephant is described as ''weighing several tons'' (1 or 2) yet it weighs 8 or 9 ton.

Works both ways.
